Business Outlook

Pros

A company that still must deal with union negotiations, protecting the employee from total abuse.

Cons

With all the hype on quality of programing and content none of the programs can achieve true quality with out the talents of men and women who help to produce the products for air. Technology has dummed up the process in achieving a product.
